Last Dawn

There was a strain, a mind-boggling paddle of waves splashing beneath this concrete wall. Did I often wonder how and why those waves keeps hurting themselves?

The pain is sudden though thoroughly introduced along with the passing sun watching me glaze over it. This barrio's charm and calmness drafted the anxiety within. 

I did often wonder what could be the force that binds those two together - the sun and the waves

A footsteps or voice echo along this concrete wall, sat on it along with my shadow's embrace. Her feet struggles to laid without getting soaked. Her deep sighs, deafening breaths and soulless stares on blanks, glazing over the melting sun, watching it fade on the mountains silhouettes. 

If there was a time, I would probably delve in her mind and see her thoughts, her concerns and the useless guilt that's been shattering her. She means the world to another, I am to her and she is to me. 

Maybe the wind will dry up her tears, maybe the splashes of waves will mute her sobs and cries, maybe the orange sun hiding from her will cover her regrets, as much as I do. 

I sat along side with her that follows whatever trails still left to me or even a tiny bit of presence, still known or maybe unknown, I'll take whatever is left for me to hold myself from coming back to her tears and warm embrace. She looked down and blankly stare the raging waves banging themselves on the walls. 

Maybe the same thought crossed her mind.. As why are they hurting themselves under the radiance of the dancing orange lights

Or maybe she's wondering why the waves moves along with the lights or the wind, or maybe the calmness of this town, or maybe because the birds sung it's favorite melody, or maybe the pain was bearable now.

As I stared at her for a long time, memorizing every features of her face; her eyes, nose, lips, her cheeks, her brows and even the tiny mole on her chin, I count the seconds that's left.

I prayed for the very last time, beside her and hum up to my very last voice. The birds sympathized with me, the waves cried for me and the sun waited for me to pick myself up,

It was a peaceful dawn.
